Hear it from a mother

If you want your children to pick up the skill, make sure you know how to do it, too. I struggled through my entire childhood to solve the cubes. So when I bought it for my children, I didn’t want to simply hand it to them. I took three days to learn the cube through YouTube videos. Seeing me so engrossed in the activity piqued my children’s interest. They picked the same up within a day. You cannot just hand the cube to a child and expect them to learn it by themselves. They might turn away from it. Pick up the skill, and learn a few things with them. Now, while I take a little over two minutes to solve it [3x3 cube], my children, Annie and Ethan, can do the same in just over a minute. They can solve at least seven types of cubes, and even make mosaic portraits using these cubes.
